Saint Triceratops

Posted at 7:31 pm MDT to Media

I found this link at Making Light.

I think Saint Triceratops is delightful, but I can see that it might not have the same resonance for those not raised Catholic.

At the moment I'd actually prefer some assistance from something toothier and more militant than a triceratops. Think coffee cups with little concentric ripples. I was hoping to get to bed early tonight, but the college students in the apartment next door have a sound system that really more than adequate for the size of these apartments and the amount of insulation in the walls.

For some reason, for the past week I've been alternating Pete Townsend's "All the Best Cowboys Have Chinese Eyes" and Warren Zevon's "Excitable Boy" in my CD player.(My travelling stero system is a walkman with computer speakers plugged into the headphone port -- at home I have a serious AV stack.) I think when Pete finishes 'Slit Skirts' it's going to be time for some 'Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner' and 'Lawyers, Guns and MOney'. And the maybe the 'Gladiator' soundtrack.

It might be better for my soul and my blood pressure to pay some Krishna Das instead, but I don't think it would cover up the rappers unless I cranked the volume too much.

Six and a half more weeks. I get to go home the weekend of December 9.

I've been called for jury duty December 18th... a nice long trial would mean I get to sleep in my own bed for a while, but I suspect I'm too much of a geek to get picked for a jury, even in Boulder, Colorado.
